Freedom tops Pittsburg in shootout

Darrell Daniels (5) and the Freedom High football team picked up a big regular season win on Oct. 12 when the Falcons beat Pittsburg 49-48 in a Bay Valley Athletic League thriller. Daniels scored two touchdowns and had 109 yards receiving in the game, but his biggest play came late in the fourth quarter when he blocked a point-after attempt by Pittsburg that preserved the Falcons' one-point lead. On Oct. 19, Freedom hosts Antioch and Pittsburg plays at Deer Valley.
